Mom, what do I do about my kids, their pain, their struggle?
Keep trying.
Mom, its feels useless — or dangerous to me sometimes.
Giving up would be very dangerous to you, deadly.
I don’t have any good ideas, though, Mom. I don’t know where to turn.
No one does, really. Turn toward love though, whichever way you go. Face love. Think of the way a compass always points north. Orient yourself and your decisions always knowing where love is, locating it, and then letting it tell where everything else is.
But what if I can’t find love, Mom?
Be still. Withdraw, maybe. Listen to music. Try to wait to act until you can find it again. You will find it and very quickly, too.
